MLB: Canada's Team || Toronto Blue Jays Baseball

[TheSanchize]

Gee thanks ... I needed that. *grin*

You can still know baseball history before your birth.

Kurt Bevaqua ... he joined the ranks of unknowns (guys of little ability) that have hit big playoff/WS homers ... joining the likes of Tito Landrum, Tom Lawless, etc ... I suppose you could throw Aaron Boone in there too.

The only name i know in that list is Aaron Boone

I'm a huge Orioles fan, but I want to see you make the playoffs over the Yanks so sweep them O's! Go Jays!

 

[T.Dot]

Judging by your record and Baltimore's record, I sense that you can at least win this series, possibly sweep it. Good luck against the Os.
(On an unrelated note, today is my 22nd birthday)

I hope I can, that would be great
Happy Birthday man

Congrats On COTM!

Thanks

[Boucher]

Nice to see Boo Wells doing his thing, what happens to Lind?

 

[T.Dot]

go O's!!!! i mean uhhhh tough loss man

haha, thanks, I was so pissed off especially of the amount of hits for both teams

Nice to see Boo Wells doing his thing, what happens to Lind?

V-Dub is doing great, jsut not a lot of power
Lind got injured for the season in the last week of August, he finished with 17 homers and 76 RBIs

 

[T.Dot]

wow cubs are insaneee..... i'm not sure about this but was Rios in the home run derby last year?

Ye, they are doing well this year maybe because they've suffered like no injuries, I don't think Rios is, rofl if he was he prob would have done worse then Inge

 

[Woy]

Damn, that loss to the O's sucks.
